About: Hello! I am a lifelong animal lover who treats every pet like a cherished member of the family. Having owned dogs and cats my entire life, I understand how important it is to find someone you trust completely to care for your fur babies. To give back to the animal community, I am currently volunteering at a local shelter, which keeps my hands-on care skills sharp and my heart full. Your pets will receive the exact same patience, love, and individual attention I give my own. I have a flexible schedule that allows me to give pets plenty of time, attention, and consistency throughout the day. I’m available for walks, drop-in visits, and scheduled care, and I make it a priority to follow each pet’s normal routine as closely as possible. I’m dependable about arrival times and communication, and I’ll always keep you updated while your pet is in my care. Your pet’s safety, comfort, and routine are always my priority. When caring for pets in a client’s home, I follow your instructions carefully, respect your home, and make sure doors, gates, leashes, food, medications, and other safety needs are handled exactly as requested. I take time to help pets feel comfortable with me and never rush an animal that needs a little extra time to warm up. I’ll also keep you updated so you can feel confident that your pet is safe and well cared for.
“Jasmine was amazing!! She came to meet my dogs before my last minute trip (last minute as in a few hours prior having to leave!) My dogs loved her immediately and was on time for each walk will be making her my go to dog sitter from now on ☺️”
“Teri is not only reliable, she go the extra mile to ensure your pet is safe, happy, content, rightly cared for. I promptly received a photo every morning, an update on his demeanor, an apology when a hairball was discovered on a white carpet, plus a sincere attempt in it's removal. My lil' boy was even gifted a new toy! How thoughtful and generous. I strongly recommend Teri for all you kitty owners, she's a godsend.”
“This is the 2nd time Sophia has watched my cat while I was away on a trip and she is phenomenal. She sends lots of pictures and specific updates. When I come home I can always tell my cat has been well cared for! I highly recommend booking her for your pet care needs 😊”
About: I approach all walks of life with an open heart and love. Because of this I believe all critters seek out my affections and makes for fun interactions. I am currently at a cross road in life and looking for new situations that are more fulfilling. I absolutely enjoy spending my time with four legged friends. I have a mostly private fenced in yard with plenty of room for running and playing. I also can provide crates and segregated spots for our friends that need their own space or maybe a little to shy.
About: I’ve been around dogs for as long as I can remember and have always loved caring for animals. I currently have two German Shepherds of my own, so I’m very comfortable caring for larger and energetic dogs.

Pet care already fits naturally into my daily routine since I have two German Shepherds of my own that I care for every day. I’m used to making time for feeding, walks, playtime, and giving them plenty of attention.

About: What sets me apart is that caring for animals has always been a genuine part of my life, not just a job. I currently have two cats of my own who I’ve raised and care for every day, and I also have experience caring for three dogs—feeding them, playing with them, taking them on walks, and giving them plenty of attention and love. My first dog, Dexter, is where my love for caring for animals really began. I walked him every day, fed him every night, bathed him, played with him, and loved him enough for every star in the sky. ❤️ I know how important pets are to their families because mine mean the world to me. When someone trusts me with their pet, I want them to feel confident knowing their baby is being cared for with the same patience, attention, and love I give my own. I’m currently a student and attend classes on Mondays and Wednesdays, which leaves me with a very flexible schedule throughout the rest of the week. I’m especially available Thursdays through Sundays, and I can often accommodate different times or last-minute needs. My schedule is pretty flexible, so I’m always happy to work with you to find a time that fits both your schedule and your pet’s routine! I understand that trusting someone with your pet also means trusting them in your home, and I take that responsibility very seriously. I will always be respectful of your space, follow any instructions you leave for me, and make sure your home is left just as I found it. When caring for your cat, I’ll keep their environment safe, clean, and comfortable while sticking as closely as possible to their normal routine. I’m also happy to send photos and updates during each visit so you can have peace of mind knowing your cat and your home are being well cared for while you’re away. 🐱🤍

Cat sitters on Rover care for your cats’ needs and can spend quality time with them, including activities like feeding, playing, and refreshing their water and litter boxes. Depending on your arrangement, you can schedule as many visits per day as your cat needs or find a sitter who can stay at your house overnight. Some sitters also board cats in their home.
House sitting can be ideal for cats who need socialization or care that lasts longer than a few hours. Your cat stays in their own home, on their own schedule, with care based on what you and your sitter agree on together.
Many pet parents provide a spare key or arrange a lockbox. You can also exchange keys during the Meet & Greet and show your walker how to use digital fobs or personalized codes. It helps to arrange access to your home, from spare keys to concierge introductions, before pet care begins.
If you live in an apartment or condo, don’t forget to discuss details like buzzer access, codes, or elevator etiquette. These details can help a pet sitter feel more comfortable going in and out of your building.
Every sitter on Rover is required to pass a background check before listing their services. This process confirms their identity and indicates they are not on the Department of Justice’s National Sex Offender Public Website or have any disqualifying offenses.
Beyond ID checks, you can review each sitter's star rating, read verified reviews from other pet parents, and see how many repeat clients they have. Every booking is backed by the Rover Guarantee, which includes up to $25,000 in eligible veterinary care. For more details, visit Rover's Trust & Safety page.
The Rover Guarantee is Rover’s commitment to your peace of mind every time you book. It includes 24/7 customer support, sitter access to advice from qualified veterinary professionals for diagnostic issues, and a reimbursement program for eligible veterinary care in the rare event something goes wrong.
All bookings are backed by the Rover Guarantee, which provides up to $25,000 in eligible veterinary care reimbursement.
A Meet & Greet is a casual meeting to vet potential sitters and communicate care needs for peace of mind before a booking begins. Only sitters who have never booked with you before can schedule a Meet & Greet on Rover; however, you are welcome to coordinate one in Rover messages with sitters you have previously booked. This can be helpful if you have a new pet or routine you want to go over with your sitter.
Meet & Greets can take place in person or virtually. If you are booking with a sitter for the first time, we recommend in-person Meet & Greets to get a clearer sense of how your sitter interacts with your pet or the new environment.
During the Meet & Greet, you will have a chance to walk through your pet's routine, medical needs, and unique quirks. Take the time to ask your sitter questions about their skills and expertise, and make sure the fit feels right for everyone. Meet & Greets are a great way to prepare your pet and sitter for longer stays or first-time bookings. Read our tips for your first Meet & Greet.

sitters on Rover set their own cancellation policy, which you can find on their profile under their contact information. Sitters may set a same-day, one-, three-, or seven-day cancellation policy. Cancelling within your sitter’s cancellation policy qualifies you for a full refund.
Same-day cancellations for recurring services, which include walks, drop-ins, and day care, follow the full refund policy. Otherwise, for pet boarding and house sitting, if you cancel after 12 pm on the applicable cancellation deadline, you’ll receive a 50% refund for the first seven days of the booking and a 100% refund for any remaining days.
If your sitter needs to cancel within seven days of the booking's start date, then our reservation protection will kick in. This means you will get a full refund and our support team will work with you to find a replacement sitter.
